Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot-Chapter 1351 - 559 Another Master Sido_2

Wang Tao shook his head with a smile and kissed Lan Yulian on the forehead.

"We’re almost there—huh?"

Wang Tao was about to tell Lan Yulian that they were nearing Silver Serpent Base when his walkie-talkie suddenly crackled to life. freēnovelkiss.com

"Zzzt..."

The Golden Eagle wasn’t flying too high, so the electronic devices Wang Tao carried were all in working order.

Curious about the crackling sounds from the walkie-talkie, Wang Tao asked the Golden Eagle to slow down and see who was trying to reach him.

After circling in the sky for a while, a human voice finally came through the walkie-talkie.

"Zzzt...The sun...shines overhead...zzzt..."

"Is that him? Xiao Jin, fly east."

Hearing the words from the walkie-talkie, Wang Tao immediately directed Xiao Jin to fly toward Feisha Lake Prison.

Before he left Feisha Lake Prison, he had given Liu Bo, the head of the prison, a radio and told him to contact him if there was anything, although he wasn’t sure if the signal would get through.

"The sun shines overhead" was the code, and Wang Tao didn’t need to respond; he could just head straight there.

Wang Tao briefly explained the situation to Lan Yulian.

"There’s actually a Dusk Church here too..."

Lan Yulian was somewhat surprised; the reach of the Dusk Church seemed incredibly far, didn’t it?

There were several hundred kilometers between Changhe Base and Silver Serpent Base. If it weren’t for Wang Tao, the people of both bases might have never known about each other’s existence. Yet, the Dusk Church had extended its reach into both places... The power of the Dusk Church seemed a bit beyond expectations!

"When I first learned about the Dusk Church, I was just as surprised as you are."

Wang Tao shook his head.

He had no idea why the Dusk Church would be here. He had uprooted the Dusk Church from Changhe Base, but the organization was still very mysterious to him, and he had no idea how they managed to expand here in this apocalyptic environment...

While they were talking, the Golden Eagle was already near Feisha Lake Prison.

Wang Tao was unclear about Liu Bo’s situation, so he jumped off Golden Eagle in advance and walked to the entrance of Feisha Lake Prison.

"Is anyone there?"

Wang Tao shouted.

After a moment, pairs of eyes popped up over the high walls of the prison, one of which belonged to the familiar Liu Bo.

"Open the gate!"

Liu Bo hurriedly yelled, and the small prison gate opened.

Wang Tao, along with Lan Yulian, Jiang Shixue, and Lightning, walked in.

"Pri—Mr. Wang, you’re finally here!"

Liu Bo almost called Wang Tao "Priest Lord," but seeing that Wang Tao was accompanied by a beautiful woman he didn’t recognize, Liu Bo wasn’t sure if Wang Tao was willing to reveal his identity, so he immediately corrected himself. It had to be said that Liu Bo was quite astute.

Seeing that Liu Bo appeared unharmed and that there hadn’t been any fight here, Wang Tao laughed and said,

"We are all our own people."

"Yes, Priest Lord!"

Liu Bo saluted again and then quickly led Wang Tao and his companions to the conference room, speaking anxulously,

"Priest Lord, my superior—oh no, my former superior came to see me!"

"Hmm? That Senior Priest? When?"

Wang Tao was immediately surprised.

"He came yesterday! After he left, I’ve been trying to contact you with the radio. What should I do..."

Liu Bo’s face fell.

After discovering that Liu Bo was a member of the Dusk Church, Wang Tao had impersonated a Senior Priest of the Dusk Church to inquire about the situation at Silver Serpent Base.

At that time, Liu Bo’s River Base was facing a survival crisis—with a sixth-rank zombie near the base, should it discover them, their base would surely be wiped out. And he hadn’t been able to contact his superior for a long time after the heavy snowfall; he thought his superior must have died, so he had no one to ask for help.

Just when he was at his wit’s end, Wang Tao arrived.

Wang Tao dealt with those zombies, which was a huge favor to Liu Bo. As a result, Liu Bo switched loyalties and defected to Wang Tao.

However, unexpectedly, his former superior was alive and well and had suddenly reached out to him.

This put Liu Bo on edge; even though he hadn’t done anything to wrong his superior, defecting to another while his boss was still alive was a major taboo. If his superior found out, Liu Bo would be in serious trouble.

So Liu Bo wanted to contact Wang Tao; if Wang Tao would help him, he might still be able to save his own life. But he was afraid that Wang Tao might not want to offend his superior for reasons of apprehension or something else. If that were the case, then he would truly be dead! Not only him, but the entire Flying Sand Lake Base might also be gone...

"This time he came personally? Did you tell him you’ve defected to me?"

Wang Tao raised an eyebrow.

Liu Bo had previously said that his superior used to send messengers to meet with him at designated places and almost never came in person; Liu Bo had only had one close encounter with his superior.

Liu Bo hastened to explain,

"Yes, he came himself! He said the outside environment was too hostile, and his messengers couldn’t make it... I didn’t reveal a single bit about you; otherwise, he would have squashed me on the spot!"

"What did he come for?"

Wang Tao was rather curious.

"He, he said..."

When asked this question, Liu Bo suddenly looked a bit uncomfortable.

"What’s wrong? Can’t say it?"

"I can say it! It’s just... Ahem, Priest Lord, just to be clear, this is what he told me, not something I made up—he told me he’s seen all my efforts recently and he’s very pleased. So he’s preparing to promote me to Junior Priest, saying there will be an opportunity waiting for me, and as long as I do well, becoming a Junior Priest is assured... This is really what he said, not something I concocted to get a promotion and a raise!"
